I had the most wonderful time with this play! I played the role of Corie that Jane Fonda which was so amazing I got to meet and talk with her at the Grammy's the week before! The cast and crew of this play was incredible and I learned so much!!

My friend, Michael Breath and I had a blast performing in the Grand Finale at The Tommy Tune Awards - such an awesome experience. I got to meet Tommy Tune back stage and I also loved meeting people from schools all over Houston.

My Senior year, I had the honor of playing the role of Marion in The Music Man. I had many great friends in the show also which made the show extra special. The Studio VII Cast and Crew were amazing! This show holds such a special memory for me. Thank you Studio VII!

I have also been busy playing the role of Lucy in the play Dracula. I had a wonderful cast and crew to work with!! I loved my role because I got to play opposite of my friend since preschool, Mackenzie Winters, where the chemistry on stage was very easy for us. It was so fun because I get bitten and turn into a vampire. The most of these pictures are backstage after the show. One of my cast members, Michael Breath, and I had the pleasure of taking a picture with Bob Bryant, Executive Director for Fine Arts of Katy ISD and Ashley Vann, member of the Katy ISD Board of Trustees.

Another event I recently had the pleasure to participate in was the TASA/TASB event held in Dallas, Texas. Two students were chosen from every Katy ISD school in Theater, Band, Orchestra and the Dance to do an event together. I had the honor getting to introduce, Mr. Alton Frailey, who was elected President over all of the Texas School Boards but is also our KISD Superintendent. Bob Bryant, was the director of our show. It was an amazing experience to get to work with the exceptional talent from around the District!

I have been in the process of working on some new music projects but in the meantime I was voted Homecoming Queen of Seven Lakes High School which was SO EXCITING! I got to walk out on the football field with my dad which was such a special moment. The Homecoming King, Angelo Cioffi, and I have been friends since 1st grade when we attended Roosevelt Alexander Elementary. The two men in the picture have been my Principals every year since I was in 6th grade. This is a wonderful honor!

Very fun event! The celebrity supporters included singers, athletes, astronauts just to name a few of the amazing people in attendance. I was proud to perform the National Anthem for such a great cause.

Thank you to Under Armour Clothing for outfitting us from head to toe.

It was such a privilege meeting Laurie. She has accomplished so much in her life on and off Broadway. She flies into Houston,TX every year and sings at Second Baptist for Easter Celebration. Such a great opportunity. :)

She was an original member of The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber in Concert, touring the country singing opposite Michael Crawford. She has also appeared in other shows including Annie, Camelot, Grease, and many more.

Proud and honored to have had the opportunity to sing the National Anthem for the United States Army! I was treated by all who attended with such grace and respect. It was amazing that I got to meet Bragadier Generals and the former Secretary of The Army. I loved learning about traditional Army history. In the pictures below they gave me beautiful Army coins. Former Houston Sports Anchor, Bob Boudreau, was the Emcee of the night. Thank you Buddy Grantham for a wonderful evening.

My old Junior High School, Beckendorff JHS, asked me to come sing at the Alumni Game. It just so happened to be my little brothers last game as point guard for that team in that gym. This was truly a touching night for my family. Go Bears!

On Feb. 1st, I had the privilege of performing with the Seven Lakes High School band, choir and orchestra, alongside some of the most amazing musical talents I have ever met. It was a wonderful experience!
